Note -
The SPARC M10 systems have Oracle Solaris preinstalled. According to the purpose,
either use the preinstalled Oracle Solaris as is or reinstall it.
To reinstall Oracle Solaris, install the latest Oracle VM Server for SPARC. For the latest
information on the supported Oracle Solaris versions and SRU, see the Fujitsu M10/SPARC
M10 Systems Product Notes .
Note -
Before starting work for a system using the SPARC M10-4S in the 1BB configuration,
see " 1.2 Workflow for the SPARC M10-4 ."
1.3 Workflow for the SPARC M10-4S
The SPARC M10-4S is a system that uses a building block method connecting
multiple 4U-size chassis, each of which can be configured with up to 4 CPUs (64
cores). The one-building-block configuration (1BB configuration) with one chassis
can be expanded to up to the 16BB configuration.
For the connection of each SPARC M10-4S in a building block configuration, the rack
types and the types of cables connecting each chassis vary depending on the number
of chassis configurations. For details, see Table 1-3 .
This section describes the workflow separately by how the chassis is connected.
